Originally posted by Exiled: It makes me wonder if the 2 brothers have had some training too. There is no way the average jihadist can escape and evade a 1st world law enforcement/military effort to capture him. If he has been trained formally then this is a bad thing, it means that they've come up with a good training program for jihadists.
Chechnya at one time had its own KGB and several of those KGB foreign service agents went Jihad, or just plain open market. They had a long history of training Islamic militant operatives during the cold war.
So by extension, these guys were not just Jihadi, but most likely KGB trained, but that's by extension, not directly. Kind of like how some former SF people train some of the groups in the US, and if I am not mistaken, even some of the US based Islamic groups have a few black militant and Arabic American guys who were at one time SF.
A lot of the Chechen Jihadists are KGB/Spetsnaz who went over the fence when the Soviet Union fell apart.
Life liberty, and the pursuit of those who threaten them.
Trump: not the president America needs, but the president America deserves.
